Here's a little New Year quiz I made for my Facebook page Haiku Hole.
Below are 15 well known films with their plot or premise condensed into haiku form. All you have to do is name the film. I'll be posting the answers on Facebook on Wednesday, but I'm sure you lot will work them out much sooner than that.
Have fun
Q1.
Boy trained by Muppet
Learns to use special powers
Fights Dad and loses
Q2.

Get the band back together
Wearing sunglasses
Q3.

With help from old friends
Q4.
Nine friends go for walk
Through dangerous countryside
